We will begin at noon, and continue to take sign-ups throughout the day. Doubles will start at 1:00 for $10 per team, and then singles will follow for $5 per person. There will then be an hour long break to do as you will, namely go for food. After that, a free low tier tournament will ensue, and the night will finish with free crew battles.
BRING SETUPS, PEOPLE. I can't stress this enough, for we'll be needing a lot of them, as we haven't had quite enough for past events.
Take note of the rules, as they are slightly different than normal.
